Alfonzo Dennard grateful for opportunity with Cardinals
Former New England Patriots cornerback Alfonzo Dennard is excited for the opportunity to be with the Arizona Cardinals.
Dennard told the Cardinals official website he was caught off guard when the Patriots informed him that they were going to release him.
“It was shocking, because I thought I did everything right,” Dennard said. “I guess they had other plans and I wasn’t in it. But I’m happy to be here with the Cardinals.”
Dennard had no explanation for his release, but does not seem angry at anyone for what happened.
“I wish I could tell you an answer,” Dennard said. “But that’s the coaches. It was up to them. I really don’t know what they were thinking. I’m not even sure.”
Dennard is ready to move on and help the Cardinals in any way possible.
“Whatever the coaches want me to do,” Dennard said. “I’m just happy to be here. It’s unbelievable.”
